3 Scoring Objective - One of the most frequent questions asked of this program is why a certain amount of points are awarded for one scored area and a different amount of points to other areas. The Chapter of the Year Program is divided into four major areas. They are General Chapter, Membership Enhancement, Rider Education and Leadership Training. One of the internal goals of developing and updating the score sheet each year is to ensure that the points for the General Chapter area accounts for a large portion of the score and that the other three major areas remain fairly equal. By doing this, Chapters that are stronger in Rider Education do not have an unfair advantage over Chapters that might not be so strong in Rider Education. The same example can be used for Chapters that are stronger in Membership Enhancement or Leadership Training. Scoring in this manner helps meet the program s goal by ensuring that small as well as large Chapters have an equal opportunity to win and be recognized as the best Chapter in all of GWRRA. Iii

4 GWRRA Chapter of the Year History The Chapter of the Year Program was created and designed in 2007 to stimulate Chapters to strive for excellence within their respective District and Region. Secondly it is to find and recognize the best of the best Chapters within GWRRA. GWRRA Chapter of the Year Goal The goal of the Chapter of the Year Program is to get more Chapters involved in all of the GWRRA s programs and FUN activities that have been proven successful for many of the active and growing Chapters throughout GWRRA. Chapters that enter into the Chapter of the Year Program and are not selected as the District, Region or GWRRA International Chapter of the Year, will be a stronger, healthier Chapter for their efforts. Many of the scoring areas are measured in percentages to ensure that small and large Chapters alike have an equal chance in winning GWRRA International Chapter of the Year Region H, Stillwater Oklahoma Chapter X Chapter Directors= Marie & Steve Wilson Chapter of the Year Coordinator - Linda and Bill Stevens A complete list of all previous GWRRA International Chapters of the Year can be found at Disqualifiers If a Chapter was selected as the 2014 District Chapter of the Year they cannot be selected as the 2015 Chapter of the Year.

All Chapters, including the 2014 District Chapter of the Year can participate in the Gold, Silver and Bronze part of this program, if the District elects to participate in this part of the Chapter of the Year Program. If a Chapter is selected as the 2014 International Chapter of the Year, they must wait three years to compete in this program again. As stated above, they may participate in the Gold, Silver and Bronze part of the program. PG-1

Example: Average number of participants - 15 Number participating in the event - 6 awarded for the event > Participants 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% are awarded based on percentages as follows: 15% 1 Point 20% 2 25% 3 30% 4 35% 5 40% 6 45% 7 50% 8 Percentages are rounded to the nearest whole number.
